COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

good mornooning friends and wibblers! today starts with tea and my new lamp [emoji3]

i can’t wait on items from amazon anymore, my TORTOISE will have to be shipped it 2 parts my mum and dad ordered vouchers for a stake house... they got ‘lost’ in the post as well. postman pat has a lot to answer for!!

i will be taking a half day from work to go shopping and post office. i have found out the DHL depo is near my work, i might visit them today.

hope everyone is having a smoother time preparing!

Good afternoon, John!
Golly, that's not good news re your TORTOISE.
I think all the others are safely posted and three or four of us are waiting with itchy fingers for the opening day as our parcels have arrived.

Good Luck, I hope he recovers well.

Thank you! [emoji2][emoji173]️

 

[Moozillion]

Wishing your hubby a speedy recovery, Bea!

Thank you! [emoji2][emoji173]️

 

[Moozillion]

Sending you and hubby the best wishes and for him a good wound healing. White skin and bright hair are no good preconditions to live under a "agressive" sun like in Texas.

Thank you! [emoji2][emoji173]️

Sure I am always happy to share pics. But most of these have already been posted here, so apologies to those of you have already seen them. The pic of baby 1 had sand in the table, until JoesMum taught me otherwise. Baby2 is what Baby looks like now and is the most recent photo. Baby3 is more or less right in the beginning after I found Baby, however the grass did not do well in the table so had to replace it. And the closed chamber is what I finally figured out this weekend - how to close the table. But I have since realised that I the wall might get mold due to the humidty so have to figure something out which will solve that issue and or try and find a better solution that won't cost me the earth.

WOW!!!! [emoji2] What a gorgeous little tort!!! [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7]
Did you say you FOUND him???! [emoji33]

Chersina Angulata - Bowsprit I think is the other name.

Yes. It was an egg which hatched in my garden. And I probably should have left him alone but just didn't have the heart to let nature take its course.

As I was driving Hubby home from his procedure yesterday, he said the doctor told him ice cream would help the healing process. When I told him I didn't hear the doctor say that, he informed me that the last time he had his hearing aids adjusted, they added a setting where you can hear what the speaker MEANT to say, rather than what they said.
Can't argue with that.
We got coffee flavor, and he shared with me.

No I don't think I have seen one. But I could be wrong and just didn't recognise it.
